SeanZX9R, formally Seanzx10 or S10

Post by SeanZX9R »

Well some of you know me, some dont. A lot more members have joined since I was last on. For the ones that dont know me, I was cleaned up by a car on my ZX10R 2 years ago, and broke my arm, wrist and fractured a hip. And after many unsuccessful operations on my wrist, gave up the 10, due to not being able to sit on my wrist.
Then I got phone call from the Doc telling me about a new operation, and wanted to test it on me. I said lets do it, and they pulled out my dead scaphoid bones and replaced them with prosthetic bones in December 05. And we had success. I`ve got about 60% use back in the wrist in only 3 months and getting stronger everyday. Heres a site on the wrist op if anyone wants a look.

SO now that its getting better, I got myself a 98 ZX9R ninja. And am happy to be back out there. Hope to meet some of you on a ride some time.
Cheers Sean

welcome back mate, good to see you've moved up :wink:

BTW that looks very similar to Damon's bike :shock:

gotta love the 9 (as someone with a dodgy wrist and knee I know exactly where your comming from)

infact i went for a ride with brett, when we get to the first stop he says " is it your left knee that's crook"

it is aparently quite visible.......
